A good pal & I just ran 357 rounds into the p-dogs again today.
Nothing fancy, but they were out in force in this spot that does not get shot in a lot since everyone is required to walk in at least 1 mile & its not for the faint hearted.
Many doubles & triples today & hundreds for tonight's coyotes or other predators.
The more we shot, the more that popped up, (realy dumb young ones) nothing was more than a 300 yard shot and we could see hundreds more past that waiting for some lead dinner.
My .223 and my pals .220 swift were burning up in the 90* temps, lucky we had a flowing creek by us and I took a tee shirt sliced it and soaked it in the creek, then wraped it over our bbls. and a bottle of creek water to keep them wet.
I could of taken many pictures of split p-dogs, but they are all the same to me these days.
We took 4 bottles of water each to keep fresh & still ran out due to the heat & wind. We started to soak our shirts & hats in the creek to stay cool & somewhat hydrated in those 6 hours.
This is one of the areas I sent Dave & his pals to shoot.
Dave it seems like you all didn't shoot any out there, the place was over run and many new towns in the valleys from 1.5 yrs ago.
The picture is a new town that was not there 2 yrs ago and runs at least 3/4 mile up that gully to the right.
I have run a tad under 4k rounds into them so far this year also.
